Let's Control It

Hello,

I have a problem transferring the ESPEasy firmware to the ESP32 DEVKIT V1.
When flashing, I get an error message (see attached file).
Flash Tool: ESP Easy Flasher (0.04.007)
Firmware: ESP_Easy_mega_20210503_normal_ESP32_4M316K.bin
Board: ESP32 DEVKIT V1

Kind Regards

Juergen B.

When flashing an ESP32 initially, there are a few prerequisites:
- Use the Espressif flashing tool (included in the combined download in subfolder "Espressif_flash_download_tool_v3.8.5"
- Select a .bin file with 'factory' in the name (this includes the bootloader, partition table, etc. files)
- Flash the file at address 0

Depending on the board, you may need to manually force it into flash mode by holding the BOOT button, short-press the EN button, and after a couple of seconds release the BOOT button. That should be done just before, or while, the flash tool is searching for the board (you have about 10 seconds for that)

After a successful flash you can update the firmware using the Firmware Update button on the Tools tab, now using an ESP32 .bin file without factory in the name.

NB: This can be found in the fine documentation, over here: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... shing.html (look for the ESP32 section)

Hello,

Thank you for the information, I was able to flash the ESP32 with ESPEasy and connect it to my WLAN.

Kind Regards

Great, thanks for reporting your success!

It is possible to use
Espressif_flash_download_tool
do I also make flash settings directly?
In one step.
If I use a LAN module,
to have Ethernet, IP ... set up right away ...
So that I don't have to use wifi.

You can connect via USB-Serial, like used for flashing, with a software terminal, and type the commands to the unit (you can't correct using backspace though, best prepare the commands in an editor and copy&paste)

Not sure these commands are already documented:

Hardware setup: Network setup:

I still have to update the build stored here to the latest build, but you can test this version of the web flasher which also offers the option to open a serial console from the browser right after flashing.

There you can also add the commands for "wifikey,MySecretKey" and "wifissid,MySSID" (and "save")
You can also build a fully Custom build, where you define all the presets for your builds in a Custom.h file.

Entering one at a time is time consuming.

But knowing that this is the possibility.

@TD-er
Web flash works
but the console does not appear.
Or I can't open.

I have to learn to build my own build
